Investment Team
Our professionals combine years of investing experience with a vast global research network. The investment team spends most of its time performing rigorous fundamental research. The portfolio managers/analysts are generalists with specific sector focus. It is a team-oriented process, led by veteran portfolio manager, Nels Wangensteen.
Our portfolio managers have equity ownership in the firm with significant assets invested in the strategy. Because we maintain close alignment of interests, when our clients succeed, so do we.
Investment Style
The Global Growth Strategy is an all-cap, thematic, concentrated portfolio of 20-30 companies. Our investments are generated from themes that capitalize on four key global forces:
- Accelerating advances in technology
- Emerging consumers
- Demographic shifts
- Advances in health science
After identifying companies that fit into our themes, we employ a rigorous bottom-up, fundamental security research process. Our goal is to identify investments we can own for a long time, resulting in fully-invested portfolios with low turnover.
